What You Should Know

You'd grab this 12 fl oz lemon black tea from a grab-and-go cooler or the ready-to-drink tea shelf as a light, modern alternative to soda — pitched as a low-calorie, functional refresher with added prebiotics. It reads healthy and convenient, but the brewed tea combined with isolated fibers, sweeteners, natural flavors and acidulants produces a consistent, shelf-stable texture and flavor that signals industrial processing.
